Once again, it’s time to check off some items on my “TIDU List” – Things I Don’t Understand:
• Why the heat on Mike Shanahan has risen since Sunday.
Folks are aghast at the Redskins’ three-game losing streak and butt-ugly shutout against Buffalo. The 3-1 start is a distant memory, but Shanahan has instilled a professional atmosphere and upgraded the roster (though not enough). Coaches on five-year deals deserve an evaluation period longer than 23 games.
But since bad personnel decisions were his undoing in Denver, maybe someone else should handle those duties.
• How Kyle Shanahan can reclaim his label of ‘budding guru.’
